A just-in-time Lua implementation and drop-in replacement for Lua 5.1, designed to run Lua code faster while keeping broad compatibility.

It is language runtime and development tooling. Developers use it for Lua applications that benefit from JIT performance, while untrusted scripts can still execute local code.
